GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. PURPOSE. This MARADMIN announces the Manpower and Reserve Affairs (MRA) plan for active component cross-FY extensions to support future manpower inventory requirements.
2. BACKGROUND. In response to future manpower changes, MRA has developed a short term retention plan that allows First Term Marines the opportunity to extend their service in order to fulfill the manpower needs of the Marine Corps. Marines extending their service will be authorized to submit for reenlistment following the extension utilizing all resources of the Marine Corps. Eligible FY21 First Term Marines are still encouraged to seek reenlistment if boatspaces remain in their Primary MOS.
3. Concept of Operations.
3.A. Targeted First Term Marines with an EAS in FY21 are eligible to apply for a 24 month extension. Limited quotas in the following MOSs are eligible to apply for an extension: 0261, 0311, 0313, 0321, 0331, 0352, 0451, 0511, 0621, 0847, 1142, 1371, 2131, 2141, 2171, 2311, 2611, 2621, 2631, 2641, 2651, 2841, 2862, 2871, 4512, 5939, 5951, 5952, 5953, 5954, 5974, 5979, 6074, 6092, 6124, 6132, 6154, 6156, 6176, 6212, 6217, 6218, 6222, 6223, 6227, 6252, 6256, 6257, 6258, 6276, 6282, 6287, 6288, 6317, 6326, 6332, 6337, 6338, 6483, 6492, 6499, 6694, 7011, 7212, 7236, 7257, 7314
